Just The Tips, with James P. Friel and Dean Holland
Summary: Just The Tips is a business talk show for entrepreneurs and business owners who are tired of listening to the same old stodgy content. Interviewing (and sometimes roasting) top entrepreneurs from around the world, each episode is fun, witty and informative. It's a must listen for anyone wanting to transform their marketing, sales and business while having a laugh instead of falling asleep. We, not so humbly, believe it's the best business and marketing podcast in the world.

On today’s episode of Just the Tips, Dean and I dive into the much-misunderstood but vital piece of the selling puzzle, closing. And who better to talk closing with than the man who literally wrote the book on it (Closer Secrets), Randall Grizzle. Randall spent 15 years closing high-ticket deals for some of the top marketers in the world before he struck out on his own to helps closers level up their games.
On today’s episode of Just the Tips, I am outnumbered by the Brits as Dean welcomes two friends of his from across the pond, Rob and Kennedy. The pair are unlikely entrepreneurs, to say the least, first dabbling in magic and hypnosis. But now they put their powers to good use as gurus of email marketing.
On today’s Just the Tips, it’s just Dean and I sharing a podcast episode for two for Valentine’s Day. This is actually the one place where I can tell Dean I love him, because he’s actually taken a hiatus from social media lately. At first I thought I wasn’t seeing his posts, but he tells me it’s been an intentional pullback from social media. Why? Find out on this very special, intimate Valentine’s Day episode.

On today’s episode of Just the Tips, the Bearded Wonder Dean Holland and I welcome my good friend Joe Marfoglio to the show. Joe is an expert in creating engaging content and making YouTube work for businesses, but the really big news on today’s show is that this is the first time Joe’s been on a podcast. So I broke out all of my new fancy gear, and we talked about how Joe got into the entrepreneurship game, how he got into the palm-tree game, and how to break out of in-the-box thinking.
On today’s episode of Just the Tips, I welcome a new and improved Dean Holland. He hasn’t actually changed a thing, but I’m trying to spice things up a bit.

On today’s episode, we have a guest who has been a mentor to me, someone who has been very instrumental in changing my thinking in terms of not just marketing but entrepreneurship in general. Perry Marshall is an accomplished and sought-after business coach who has been featured in Forbes and Inc. He’s also the author of the essential Ultimate Guide to Google AdWords. But today we’re talking with him about the biggest impact he’s made on not just internet marketing, but even NASA: the 80/20 rule.
We all have adversity in our lives, and it’s really what we do to overcome that adversity that shows what kind of person we are. And some have more adversity than others. That’s the case with our guest on Just the Tips today. Jeff Hall talks to us about how he overcame a troubled childhood by learning to become an entrepreneur, and how that’s shaped him for the rest of his life and career. He’s also the founder of Overflow Café.
Today on Just the Tips, I make the huge mistake of being outnumbered by Brits, and immediately lose control of the show. But luckily, our guest, Tom Breeze, is such an insightful guy that the episode turned out to be more bangers than mash. Tom is the founder and CEO of Viewability, a company specializing in YouTube advertising, boasting an impressive client list of international, personal and corporate brands.
A lot of people talk about paid-ad traffic, and the various ways to make ads online work best for your business. But getting referrals can seem like a dark art, and so today on Just the Tips, Dean and I welcome Bill Cates, a master of these dark arts. People tend to separate their customer acquisition into two camps: the things they’re doing to actively acquire business (thinks like paid ads, events, etc.) and then the passive effects of doing good work, like referrals.
Sometimes you have a guest with amazing credentials, and sometimes you have a guest with White House credentials.

And he’s the author of ICONIC: How Organizations and Leaders Attain, Sustain, and Regain the Highest Level of Distinction.
